Chapter 36 It’s Him
Hong Xiaoduo took the map Tianquan had just handed over and clicked back and forth with his fingers on the places closest to Mopan Town.
When she got the road guide made by Brother Dong, she learned that this country was called Fengliang Country, and the location of Mopan Town was located in the east of the country. A few towns away was a town called Dawu. The state capital of Guan.
More than that, we are close to the border with neighboring countries.
Brother Dong told her that although there was no war at the border, it was not a peaceful place, and he deliberately reminded her not to go that way.
The bad old man at the Science and Technology Museum didn't know the purpose of sending her here until he unlocked the original data code. When he could unlock it, the old man couldn't give an exact time.
But one thing, Hong Xiaoduo is certain, that is, if he fails to help them complete their purpose, the old man will never take her back first.
It’s not that Hong Xiaoduo is big-hearted and can take on and let go of everything, nor is she resigned to her fate, but what else can she do if she doesn’t accept this fact?
In this state of no clear purpose and direction,
but there is one thing she must do now, that is, take these seven children around. , hoping that the problem of how to place them can be solved as soon as possible.
Brother Dong, whom I had just met in Mopan Town, was a straightforward and upright person, and had the financial strength to raise these seven children. However, after he heard that he wanted to properly arrange these seven children, he only gave an analysis.
Before she left, she sent someone to deliver silver. Just now in the carriage, she opened the brocade bag and looked at it. In addition to fifty taels of silver, there was also a gold ingot and a few gold leaves. and a handful of golden beans.
Brother Dong helped make the way, and gave so much money, but he had no intention of accepting these children out of spite. That means it is not convenient to do such a thing!
As a result, Hong Xiaoduo became more aware that he was not optimistic about finding a place to properly place these children.
So what, all she can do is try her best.
Before you have a clear purpose of coming here, one advantage is that you are not restricted by time and route, and you can go wherever you want.
The seven children she brought with her were all too young and had no fixed residence. Winter was coming soon. She didn't want the children to suffer too much, so she planned to take them south.
If she could find a suitable place, she would consider staying there permanently.
"Mom, do you want to change the destination?" Tianshu saw Hong Xiaoduo looking at the map and walked over and asked.
Hong Xiaoduo did not raise his head: "I won’t change. So far, this route is the most suitable for us. First, this is an official road that is relatively safe. Second, the distance between villages, towns and cities on this road is distance, we can avoid sleeping outdoors.”
"Mom, they are here." Tianshu suddenly lowered his voice and whispered.
Hong Xiaoduo nodded and turned to look in the direction he came from, huh? Are you dazzled? She couldn't help but open her eyes wider.
"Don't be afraid, he's not a bad person." Hong Xiaoduo said to Tianshu with a sigh of relief after seeing one of the six people clearly.
Huh? After Tianshu heard this, he also looked at the people on the horse who were getting closer and closer, and immediately understood why Hong Xiaoduo was so sure.
Isn’t that person a good friend of Uncle Yuefan? Mom even treated him to meat buns and wontons.
However, this person was not as easy to get along with as Uncle Yuefan. My mother kindly invited him to eat meat buns, but for some reason, she suddenly changed her face and left in annoyance.
Uncle Yuefan was laughing very happily at that time. He lay on the ground holding his stomach and laughed for a long time before he stopped.
It’s really no wonder that Tianshu and the others were sitting so close to this person and didn’t know the inside story. There is only one reason. It was the first time in my life that I sat on the table of the bun shop and ate openly and freshly out of the cage. Hot and fragrant meat buns. There is no need to worry about being chased away. In that happy moment, all the thoughts are on eating the meat buns beautifully, so how can one have time to pay attention to anything else?
After Hong Xiaoduo saw the person on the horse clearly, he continued to look down at the map in his hand. For such a narcissistic person, if he accidentally glanced a few more times, he might be betrayed again. Misunderstood.
At this time, the six people on horseback were already very close. The five men were all looking at the little lady sitting on the roadside. She was indeed quite good-looking. Could it be that the master liked this one?
But, he was not interested in his master at all, so he just glanced at him and didn't look up again.
They observed carefully. The little lady lowered her head not because of any shyness at all. Her fair face was still the same, without any red cloud at all.
Ouch, women in this world are actually unmoved when they see their master who looks like Pan An? Rare, rare! Rare, rare!
Looking at their master, my God, that handsome face is as gloomy as the bottom of a pot!
They were so frightened that they immediately turned away, put away their gossips for the time being, sat upright on their horses, and looked ahead.
How can Mu Zitao be in a good mood? He is a young hero who is admired by many women in the capital. How come he is in the eyes of this young lady?
But what if he is annoyed? Is it possible that he should stop and question her, am I blind? Why didn't you react when you saw me?
No matter what the mood of the person on the horse is, the horse beneath him kicks its hooves and moves forward at an even speed.
At this time, a child on the roadside said something that almost made Mu Zitao fall off his horse.
"Hey, it's the sick man in town. He doesn't cough anymore. Is he cured?" Yao Guang blurted out after seeing the face of a person on the tall horse.
Her voice was actually not loud. On the contrary, she was still asking her sister Yu Heng in a low voice.
But Mu Zitao has excellent hearing! I heard it clearly! I really wanted to ignore my status as a major general and yell at that child, "I'm not sick, don't be so careless!"
The annoyance that had been stored in my heart rushed up, clamped the horse's belly with both legs, and rode away.
The five subordinates also hurriedly urged their horses to follow. They were all some distance away, and some of them turned their heads and looked back unwillingly.
Everyone was thinking the same thing. Whose little lady is this? She is capable enough. She is a talent to be able to make their usually calm master so angry!
What happened between the master and this young lady? Is there anything going on?
During these days in Mopan Town, their master told them to stay away, and they were not allowed to follow them when they went out.
The five of them were a little annoyed, why were they so stubborn and obedient that they would not follow their master if they were not allowed to follow them? It was okay to follow them secretly to protect their master, so it would not be like this now. I knew there must be something inside, but I was so confused that I didn't know anything!
I want to know so much, it’s so uncomfortable, it’s so heart-breaking!
Listening to the sound of horse hooves getting further and further away, Hong Xiaoduo also asked the children to get in the car and continue on their journey.
You have to hurry up, otherwise, according to the distance marked on the map, you will not be able to reach the town before dark.
At noon, after Mu Zitao and his group passed through a forest on horseback, they couldn't help but slow down.
“Master, something is wrong in the woods.”
“Why are there so many people doing road robbery now? They are quite discerning and don’t dare to find trouble with us, but , That little lady and the others must have come this way, too, and there was no detour along the way.”
"Master, are you going to take care of it?"
Several of the subordinates were chattering and eager to try. When they encountered this kind of thing, their hands felt itchy.
The master’s hand must be itchy too, otherwise his face, which had been dark for most of the day, actually showed a smile. However, why does the smile on the master’s face feel a little weird...
